HellCat Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Hey guys, just like the title says... where can I find a glass or stainless steel tubes/pipes/whatever to use in my DIY hookah project? I would much rather have a glass stem! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indian_villager Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Look at lab supply places. If you want glass I'd suggest borosilicate glass to avoid issues with temp shock. Or you could PM Santino.If you want steel I'd say look at McMaster Carr or look at specialty tubing places online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellCat Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 Wow! That was fast!!! thanks for the tip! Any national chain stores (Lowes, Home Depot, etc) carry this stuff, or will I have to order online? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any national chain stores (Lowes, Home Depot, etc) carry this stuff, or will I have to order online?IDK about home depot......what tubes I saw were galvanized and you dont want to smoke with that. You could try and look at local specialty plumbing shops but the best bet would be the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellCat Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 Is PVC safe though, to use as a stem?Is there a cheap, safe, and widely available material to use as a stem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indian_villager Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 PVC would be one of the worst things you could use. Copper tubing is readily available but there is some debate regarding the health issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
